Book excerpt: Explores the ideological and emotional trauma created after the withering of the socialist utopia in Cuba. Mínima Cuba analyzes the reconfiguration of aesthetics and power during the Cuban postrevolutionary transition (1989 to 2005, the conclusion of the “Special Period”). It explores the marginal cultural production on the island by the first generation of intellectuals born during the Revolution. The author studies the work of postrevolutionary poets and essayists Antonio José Ponte, Rolando Sánchez Mejías, and Iván de la Nuez, among others. In their writing we find the exhaustion of the allegorical and melancholic rhetoric of the Cuban Revolution, and the poetics of irony developed in the current biopolitical era. The book will appeal to anyone interested in contemporary literary and cultural studies, poetics, and film studies in Latin America and the Caribbean. “Marta Hernández Salván tackles head on the complex nature of philosophical tendencies within the poetics of Cuban cultural production in the last few decades to offer magnificent and precise readings of lesser-known writings and films, as well as profound renderings of canonical texts. This is a remarkably rich book that will take multiple readings to give it justice.” — Jacqueline Loss, author of Dreaming in Russian: The Cuban Soviet Imaginary

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a whole, Cuban history, culture, and art are often misconstrued with a heritage specific to Havana. In Cuba's Wild East, Peter Hulme attempts to right this wrong, focusing on the eastern region of the island and the specific fictions, poetries, locations, and histories that constitute a specific eastern culture. Examining a region with a rich insurgent and revolutionary history, Peter Hulme examines the stories of rebellion, heroism, and sacrifice that are so intimately tied to the places and sites that have now become part of a national pantheon, at the same time showing the international influence of US journalists and novelists whose presence in Cuban literature alongside native Cuban writers further defines the region as a place of encounter.

This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Equívocos / Misconceptions is a spirited adventure, an energizing take on today’s transgressions. The project refuses a conventional reliance on generations as a method for organizing anthologies of Cuban poetry. Instead, editor Yoandy Cabrera cuts across a moment in the twenty-first century, asking what priorities writers themselves have articulated. Bilingual editorial notes contextualize a wide range of themes they explore. The poems themselves – and their translations—are by turns confiding, howling, sensual, scathing, indirect, explicit, contemplative, fierce.” Kristin Dykstra, Saint Michael’s College “Si muchas de las antologías de poesía cubana publicadas en la década del 90 y comienzos de los años 2000 muestran la irrupción de nuevos discursos y formas estéticas, esta es una antología para los poetas “desubicados”, un gesto crítico que pretende corregir el error de pensar la poesía a partir del concepto de generación, cuando lo más importante son las poéticas de los autores escogidos (geómetras del desastre, no-sujetos, por ejemplo). La selección de 21 poetas realizada por Yoandy Cabrera propone observar, como en una vista aérea, las redes afectivas y estéticas que los autores establecen con sus lectores desde un afuera que es también doble: del territorio nacional y de las propias lecturas realizadas hasta el momento por la crítica. Además, se trata de una iniciativa importante como proyecto formador de nuevos traductores de la poesía cubana al inglés, a partir del trabajo realizado por Cabrera junto a sus estudiantes.” Idalia Morejón, Universidade de São Paulo Poets: Magali Alabau, Jorge Luis Arcos, Néstor Díaz de Villegas, om ulloa, René Rubí Cordoví, Ernesto Hernández Busto, Dolan Mor, Janet Batet, Norge Espinosa Mendoza, Aleisa Ribalta Guzmán, Milena Rodríguez Gutiérrez, Joaquín Badajoz, Félix Hangelini, Dashel Hernández Guirado, Leonardo Sarría, Kelly Martínez-Grandal, Jamila Medina Ríos, Legna Rodríguez Iglesias, Sergio García Zamora, Gelsys M.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louis A. Perez Jr.'s new history of nineteenth-century Cuba chronicles in fascinating detail the emergence of an urban middle class that was imbued with new knowledge and moral systems. Fostering innovative skills and technologies, these Cubans became deeply implicated in an expanding market culture during the boom in sugar production and prior to independence. Contributing to the cultural history of capitalism in Latin America, Perez argues that such creoles were cosmopolitans with powerful transnational affinities and an abiding identification with modernity. This period of Cuban history is usually viewed through a political lens, but Perez, here emphasizing the character of everyday life within the increasingly fraught colonial system, shows how moral, social, and cultural change that resulted from market forces also contributed to conditions leading to the collapse of the Spanish colonial administration. Perez highlights women's centrality in this process, showing how criollas adapted to new modes of self-representation as a means of self-fulfillment. Increasing opportunities for middle-class women's public presence and social participation was both cause and consequence of expanding consumerism and of women's challenges to prevailing gender hierarchies. Seemingly simple actions--riding a bicycle, for example, or deploying the abanico, the fan, in different ways--exposed how traditional systems of power and privilege clashed with norms of modernity and progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuba's cultural influence throughout the Western Hemisphere, and especially in the United States, has been disproportionally large for so small a country. This landmark volume is the first comprehensive overview of poetry written over the past sixty years. Presented in a beautiful Spanish-English en face edition, The Whole Island makes available the astonishing achievement of a wide range of Cuban poets, including such well-known figures as Nicolás Guillén, José Lezama Lima, and Nancy Morejón, but also poets widely read in Spanish who remain almost unknown to the English-speaking world—among them Fina García Marruz, José Kozer, Raúl Hernández Novás, and Ángel Escobar—and poets born since the Revolution, like Rogelio Saunders, Omar Pérez, Alessandra Molina, and Javier Marimón. The translations, almost all of them new, convey the intensity and beauty of the accompanying Spanish originals. With their work deeply rooted in Cuban culture, many of these poets—both on and off the island—have been at the center of the political and social changes of this tempestuous period. The poems offered here constitute an essential source for understanding the literature and culture of Cuba, its diaspora, and the Caribbean at large, and provide an unparalleled perspective on what it means to be Cuban.

Book excerpt: Afrodiasporic Forms explores the epistemological possibilities of the “Black world” paradigm and traces a literary and cultural cartography of the monde noir and its constitutive African diasporas across multiple poetic, visual, and cultural permutations. Examining the transatlantic slave trade and modern racial slavery, Raquel Kennon challenges the US-centric focus of slavery studies and draws on a transnational, eclectic archive of materials from Lusophone, Hispanophone, and Anglophone sources in the Americas to inspect evolving, multitudinous, and disparate forms of Afrodiasporic cultural expression. Spanning the 1830s to the twenty-first century, Afrodiasporic Forms traverses national, linguistic, and disciplinary boundaries as it investigates how cultural products of slavery’s afterlife—including poetry, prose, painting, television, sculpture, and song—shape understandings of the African diaspora. Each chapter uncovers multidirectional pathways for exploring representations of slavery, considering works such as a Brazilian telenovela based on Bernardo Guimarães’s novel A Escrava Isaura, Robert Hayden’s poem “Middle Passage,” Kara Walker’s sculpture A Subtlety, and Juan Francisco Manzano’s Autobiografía de un esclavo. Kennon’s expansive method of comparative reading across the diaspora uses eclectic pairings of canonical and popular textual and artistic sources to stretch beyond disciplinary and national borders, promoting expansive diasporic literacies.
